(x/2) = (3x - 10) x = 6x - 20 5x = 20 x = 4 Check this solution against the given statement: If the number is 4, then Half = 2, Triple = 12, and by golly, 2 is ten less than 12.
Less than one half of a number is a quarter of a number.
One-third of ANY number is less than half of that number - no matter what number you pick.
The expression that shows 22 less than triple a number can be written as (3x - 22), where (x) represents the number. Here, "triple a number" is represented by (3x), and subtracting 22 gives the final expression.
0.5 is one half."0.5 to the power of two" is (one half of one half).Surely you can see that (one half of one half) is less than (one half).[ (Any number less than 1) to the power of two ] is less than the original number.
If seven less than half of the number is 35 then 7 plus 35 must be half of the number. 7 + 35 = 42 and if that is half the number the whole number must be 42 x 2, which is 84.
Less than one half of a number is a quarter of a number.
if the number above the bottom number is smaller than half of the bottom number, the fraction is less than half. For example, say the fraction is 3/8, half of the bottom number is 4. 3 is smaller than 4 therefore the fraction is less than half.

3n - 22
Zero is one such number.
Seven and a half (:

The number that 30 is ten less than is 40. Half that is 20. So the question becomes "what number is as much more than 10 is less than 20". This is gobbledygook, but if I rephrase to say "what number is as much more than 10 than 10 is less than 20", then since10 is less than 20 by 10, I guess 20.
